Custom Boston Boxes

Grain uses repurposed wood for many of its clients and to build products that have “wood with history”. This project was a great example of how exciting it can be to work with material that has a story behind it.

TD Garden contacted Grain to design and build custom Boston Boxes to celebrate the hard work and dedication it took to get the band U2 to play there. U2 performed four sell out shows in Boston, and we were very excited to play a part in the event.

The Garden wanted their Boston Boxes handcrafted from the Garden’s old parquet flooring that was used for over 50 years by the Boston Celtics, and other greats. To really represent the original pattern of the parquet floor, we “finger jointed” the corners of each red oak box. The finger joint is strong and fits together without any gaps to ensure that it will be virtually indestructible.

A big thanks to danger!awesome of Cambridge, who did the laser engraving on the box covers.
